Description of the problem | I went to the gas station, 2-ish mile drive and came back home. About 20 minutes later we decided to go see my mother in law, 34 highway miles away. Cool, so we go, everything is fine, beastie (that's the name of my 2006 chrysler 300), is running good, my husband and 3yr old are jammin out to metallica, and we get to my mother in laws house.. Stay a couple hours and decided to head home.. So we say bye ect ect.. We get about 9. 5 miles down our 34 mile ride home... Aww crap, there is a tractor on the road, so we go to pass him... Or so we thought... Make sure coast is clear, turn on blinker and step on the gas petal more firmly.. Ok in the other lane.. And bam!! Car dies in motion at 60 mph!! My husband just casually says "hey babe, i think the car just died" and i look like "haha whatever" and i couldn't believe it.. So we pull over and try to get it started, had my mil come jump us.. An hour later and we still don't have beastie started.. No clicking, no nothing.. So unfortunately beastie had to sit on the side of the road until the next day... The next day we got her towed to my mils house... That was 3 days ago... And beastie still hasn't started up for me... |
